1 Isotopes: Climate, Sea Level, Ecology
2 Definitions Isotopes Atoms of the same element (i.e., same number of protons and electrons) but different numbers of neutrons. Stable Isotope Do not undergo radioactive decay, but they may be radiogenic (i.e., produced by radioactive decay). Usually the number of protons and neutrons is similar, and the less abundant isotopes are often heavy, i.e., they have an extra neutron or two.
3
4 Why are stable isotopes useful? Because of tiny differences in mass, different isotopes of a chemical element are be sorted by biological, chemical or physical processes. These naturally produced variations in isotope ratios are small (part per thousand), but easily measured. These differences in isotope ratio can be used as natural labels or tags. These differences can be used to monitor the rate or magnitude of processes.
5 What makes for a stable isotope system that shows large variation? 1) Low atomic mass 2) Relatively large mass differences between stable isotopes 3) Element tends to form highly covalent bonds 4) Element has more than one oxidation state or forms bonds with a variety of different elements 5) Rare isotopes aren t in too low abundance to be measured accurately
6 Since natural variations in isotope ratios are small, we use δ notation δ H X = ((R sample /R standard ) -1) x 1000 where R = heavy/light isotope ratio for element X and units are parts per thousand (or per mil, ) i.e., 10 = 1% + value = relatively more H than standard - value = relatively less H than standard δ 18 O is spoken aloud as delta O 18 Don t ever say del. Don t ever say parts per mil. These make you sound like a knuckle-head.

8 Isotope Fractionation 1) Isotopes of an element have same number of protons and roughly the same number of electrons, hence they undergo the same chemical (and physical) reactions. 2) Differences in mass can, however, influence the rate or extent of chemical or physical reactions, or lead to partitioning of isotopes differentially among phases. 3) Isotopic sorting during chemical, physical, or biological processes is called Fractionation.
9 Fractionation mechanisms Equilibrium Isotope Fractionation A quantum-mechanical phenomenon, driven mainly by differences in the vibrational energies of molecules and crystals containing atoms of differing masses. Kinetic Isotope Fractionation Occur in unidirectional, incomplete, or branching reactions due to differences in reaction rate of molecules or atoms containing different masses.
